I wasn't a huge fan of Death Race but it did well enough at the box office to spawn a sequel. Enter Death Race 2: Frankenstein Lives. The film additions so far include Lauren Cohan, Luke Goss, Tanit Phoenix, Sean Bean, Ving Rhames, Danny Trejo and Frederick Koehler and is directed by Roel Reiné. This will be a direct-to-dvd prequel from Universal and focuses on the title character Frankenstein.
Synopsis:
"Death Race 2 takes place in the very near future, as the United States economy begins to decline and violent crime starts to spiral out of control. To contain the growing criminal population, a vast network of for-profit, private prisons springs up, creating a lawless subculture ruled by gangs, cold-blooded killers and sociopaths. The worst of these prisons is Terminal Island. Convicted cop-killer Carl Lucas arrives on the Island to serve his life sentence just as ruthlessly ambitious television personality September Jones launches the ultimate reality show, Death Race. A brutal prison yard demolition derby that pits prisoners against each other in steel reinforced, heavily armed vehicles, Death Race offers the winner the ultimate prize: freedom — if he can survive to enjoy it. When Lucas signs up to be a driver, the stage is set for the birth of a legendary racer. "
